CROSS REFERENCE

This application claims the priority of Chinese Patent Application No. 201510362528.8, entitled “Pixel structure, array substrate and display device”, filed on Jun. 26, 2015, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a display technology field, and more particularly to a pixel structure, an array substrate having the pixel structure and a display device applied with the array substrate.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

With the constant development of the touch screen technology, Touch and Display are no longer two independent forms of technology. More and more makers of the Thin Film Transistor-Liquid Crystal Display (TFT-LCD) start to try to combine Touch and Display, such as In-Cell Touch, One Glass Solution (OGS), On-Cell Touch and Hybrid In-Cell Touch. The touch technology of combining Touch and Display seems to race to emerge.

In comparison with OGS, On-Cell Touch or Hybrid In-Cell Touch panels, the In-Cell Touch panel possesses advantages of lighter, lesser process flow and more stable structure. The In-Cell Touch is to integrate all the touch control circuits inside the LCD without additionally being attached Touch Sensor Glass or more On-Cell process on the LCD. Accordingly, the integration and the shortening of the production flow and the production time can be achieved, which can make bigger profits for the LCD makers. Meanwhile, by utilizing the stepper of high resolution, the In-Cell Touch panel with higher resolution can be realized and the Moire interference can be effectiv

prevented. Thus, the In-Cell Touch panel will be the mainstream direction for

development of the small and medium size touch control panel in the future.

In the production process of the In-Cell Touch panel, the electrodes and the wirings for touch control display have to be designed on the array substrate, such as the Low Temperature Poly-silicon (LTPS) array. The array process is much more complicated than the process of the traditional amorphous silicon (α-Si). The integration of the In-Cell Touch and the LTPS does not only make the array process more complicated, longer production period but also has more strict demands for the array process.

The In-Cell Touch panels can be divided into the self capacitance type and the mutual capacitance type. Both need the connection electrodes for coupling the pixel areas. Thus, one or more Photo Engraving Process (PEP) is added for manufacturing the connection electrodes for coupling the pixel areas (or so called Metal3 or M3) and the corresponding insulation layer. The added M3 manufacture process can create risk to the yield of the product because the etching process of M3 may cause the Mura defects. However, in the In-Cell Touch technology, M3 has to be utilized for coupling the pixel areas. Therefore, the yield promotion of the In-Cell Touch panel is restricted in a certain extent.

Please refer to FIG. 2 together. FIG. 2 is a sectional structure diagram of the pixel structure 100 shown in FIG. 1. Specifically, the sectional structure diagram of FIG. 2 is not obtained by strictly slicing the plane structure diagram of the pixel structure 100 shown in FIG. 1 in some direction. Therefore, FIG. 2 is merely to explain the internal structure of the pixel structure 100 with combination of FIG. 1 in advance.

The polysilicon layer 22 is located above the first connection layer 11, and roughly aligned with the gate 21 in a normal projection direction. The second insulation layer 13 is located above the polysilicon layer 22, and closely adhered to the polysilicon layer 22. The third insulation layer 15 is located above the second insulation layer 13. The source 23, the drain 25 and the second connection layer 53 of the connection electrode 50 are located in the third insulation layer 15. The source 23 and the drain 25 are located above the polysilicon layer 22, and the source 23 overlaps with a portion of one end of the gate 21 and the polysilicon layer 22 in the normal projection direction.

projection direction. The source 23 and the drain 25 are electrically coupled to

opposite two ends of the polysilicon layer 22 respectively through a second via hole H2. The second connection layer 53 is above the first connection layer 51, and overlaps with a portion of the first connection layer 51 in the normal projection direction. Two sides of the second connection layer 53 are electrically coupled to the first connection layer 51 respectively through a first via hole H1.

The common electrode 30 is located above the third insulation layer 15, and electrically coupled to the second connection layer 53 through a third via hole H3. The fourth insulation layer 17 is located above the common electrode 30.

Please refer to FIG. 1, again. The thin film transistor 20 is formed at an overlapping position of the scan line 110 and the data line 130. The gate 21 is at the same patter layer with the scan line 110, and electrically coupled to the scan line 110. The polysilicon layer 22 appears to be a rough U shape, which comprises a first connection section 221, a second connection section 223 and a third connection section 225. The first connection section 221 and the third connection section 225 are separately located in parallel with each other and crossing the scan line 110. The second connection section 223 is coupled between two ends of the first connection section 221 and the third connection section 225 at the same side of the scan line 110, and parallel with the scan line 110. The source 23, the drain 25 are respectively located above ends of the first connection section 221 and the third connection section 225 away from the second connection section 223 (i.e. the source 23, the drain 25 are respectively located at two ends of the first connection section 221 and the third connection section 225 at the other side relative to the scan line 110), and electrically coupled to the first connection section 221 and the third connection section 225 through the second via hole H2, respectively. The source 23 is in the same pattern layer with the data line 130, and electrically coupled to the data line 130. The drain 25 electrically coupled to the pixel electrode (not shown) through the third via hole H3 a the fourth via hole H4.The common electrode 30 is electrically coupled to the second connection layer 53 through the third via hole H3. It is understandable that in FIG. 1 of this application, the positions of the source 23 and the second via hole H2 overlap. Therefore, the two are indicated with one line. Similarly, the gate 21 and the scan line 110 in FIG. 1 are indicated with one line, and the drain 25 and the second via hole H2 are indicated with one line, and the pixel area 150 and the common electrode 30 are also indicated with one line.

It is understandable that the first connection layer 51 is in the same pattern layer with the gate 21, the scan line 110, and the second connection layer 53 is in the same pattern layer with the source 23, the drain 25, the data line 130.

Furthermore, the first connection layer 51 and the second connection layer 53 are electrically coupled through the first via hole H1 to form the connection electrode 50 employed for coupling the pixel areas 150. Thus, one or more independent manufacture process is not required to form the connection electrodes 50. The process flow is simplified.

Please refer to FIG. 3. The second embodiment of the present invention provides an array substrate 200, of which the pixel structure 100 shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 are applied. The array substrate 200 comprises a plurality of scan lines 210, a plurality of data lines 230 and a plurality of pixel areas 250. The scan lines 210 are separately arranged in parallel along a horizontal direction, and the data lines 230 are separately arranged in parallel along a vertical direction, and two adjacent scan lines 210 and two adjacent data lines 230 overlap with each other to form one pixel area 250.

The array substrate 200 further comprises a plurality of connection electrode 50 employed to coupled to pixel areas 250. The connection electrode 50 comprises a first connection layer 51 and a second connection layer 53. The first connection layer 51 and the scan lines 210 are in the same pattern layer and the second connection la

53 and the data lines 230 are in the same pattern layer. The first connection layer intersects with the scan lines 210, and the first connection layer at an intersecting position with the scan line 210 is disconnected by the scan line 210. The second connection layer 53 is located in parallel with the data lines 230 and crosses with the scan lines 210. Two sides of the first connection layer 51 at the intersecting position are electrically coupled to the second connection layer 53 through a first via hole H1. Namely, the two sides of the first connection layer 51 at two sides of the scan line 210 are electrically coupled to the second connection layer 53 through the first via hole H1. Thus, the first connection layers 51 in various pixel areas 250 are electrically coupled with one another to form the connection electrodes 50 for connecting the various pixel areas 250.

In this embodiment, the first connection layer 51 is located below the data line 230, and the two sides of the first connection layer at a disconnected position by the scan line 210 extend a distance along a direction parallel with a direction of the scan line 210 to respectively form a connection end 511 at two sides of the disconnected position. Two ends of the second connection layer 53 overlap with the connection ends 511 of the two sides of the first connection layer 51 at the disconnected position by the scan line 210 in the normal projection direction, and are electrically coupled to the connection ends 511 through the first via hole H1.

The array substrate 200 further comprises a plurality of thin film transistors T, a plurality of common electrodes Vcom and a plurality of pixel electrodes (not shown). The plurality of thin film transistors T are formed at overlapping positions of the scan lines 210 and the data lines 230. Each of the thin film transistors T comprises a gate g, a polysilicon layer p, a source s and a drain d. The gate g is in the same pattern layer with the scan lines 210, and electrically coupled to the scan line 210. The polysilicon layer p appears to be a rough U shape, which comprises a first connection section p1, a second connection section p3 and a third connection section p5. The first connection section p1 and the third connection section p5 are separately located in parallel with each other and crossing the scan line 210. The second connection section p3 is coupled between two ends of the first connection section p1 and the third connect section p5 at the same side of the scan line 210, and parallel with the scan line 210. T

source s, the drain d are respectively located above ends of the first connection section p1 and the third connection section p5 away from the second connection section p3 (i.e. the source s, the drain d are respectively located at two ends of the first connection section p1 and the third connection section p5 at the other side relative to the scan line 210), and electrically coupled to the first connection section p1 and the third connection section p5 through the second via hole H2, respectively. The common electrode Vcom is electrically coupled to the second connection layer 53 through a third via hole H3. The source s is in the same pattern layer with the data line 230, and electrically coupled to the data line 230. The drain d is electrically coupled to the pixel electrode (not shown) through the third via hole H3 and the fourth via hole H4. It is understandable that in FIG. 3 of this application, the positions of the source s and the second via hole H2 overlap. Therefore, the two are indicated with one line. Similarly, the gate g and the scan line 210 in FIG. 3 are indicated with one line, and the drain d and the second via hole H2 are indicated with one line, and the pixel area 250 and the common electrode Vcom are also indicated with one line.

It is understandable that the first connection layer 51 is in the same pattern layer with the gate g, the scan line 210, and the second connection layer 53 is in the same pattern layer with the source s, the drain d, the data line 230. Thus, the first connection layer 51 and the gate g, the scan line 210 are formed simultaneously in the same manufacture process, and the second connection layer 53 and the source s, the drain d, the data line 230 are formed simultaneously in the same manufacture process. Furthermore, the first connection layer 51 and the second connection layer 53 are electrically coupled through the first via hole H1 to form the connection electrode 50 employed for coupling the pixel areas 250. Thus, one or more independent manufacture process is not required to form the connection electrodes 50. The process flow of the array substrate 200 is simplified.

Besides, the present invention further provides a display device of which the array substrate 200 is applied. Thus, the first connection layer 51 and the gate g, the scan line 210 are formed simultaneously in the same manufacture process, and

second connection layer 53 and the source s, the drain d, the data line 230 are for

simultaneously in the same manufacture process. Then, the first connection layer 51 and the second connection layer 53 are electrically coupled through the first via hole H1 to form the connection electrode 50 employed for coupling the pixel areas 250. Thus, one or more independent manufacture process is not required to form the connection electrodes 50. The process flow of the display device is simplified to reduce the risk of generating strip defects and to promote the product yield.
